1 | What is a repentance from dead works? | Heb 6:1 | srbaegon | 133653 | ||
Hello Rowdy, "He has no needs whatsoever for He's God BUT we NEED to do them for our benefit." My Bible says differently. Rom 6:1-2 (ESV) What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound? [2] By no means! How can we who died to sin still live in it? Rom 6:15 (ESV) What then? Are we to sin because we are not under law but under grace? By no means! "[W]orks is most certainly NOT the basis of salvation as the ONLY foundation for salvation MUST be Jesus Christ, He alone and the Grace of God, His Father and ours. I guess you might compare this Grace and our works as a marriage." This is double-speak. Marriage is bringing together two individuals to make "one flesh." By its use you are saying that works are absolutely necessary in order to be saved. As Tim has mentioned, works are the result and evidence, not the basis. Nor are they part of the basis. It's all of grace (as C.H. Spurgeon nicely put it). Steve |

Justified by faith apart from good deeds Steve: Yours is an excellent answer! NASB Romans 3:28 For we maintain that a man is justified by faith apart from works of the Law. AMPLIFIED Romans 3:28 For we hold that a man is justified and made upright by faith independent of and distinctly apart from good deeds (works of the Law). [The observance of the Law has nothing to do with justification.] Grace to you, Kalos |
